1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The recent advancements in machine learning and the new availability of large chemical datasets made the development of tools and protocols for computational chemistry a topic of high interest. In this chapter a standard procedure to develop Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) models was presented and implemented in two freely available and easy-to-use workflows. The first workflow helps the user retrieving chemical data (SMILES) from the web, checking their correctness and curating them to produce consistent and ready-to-use datasets for cheminformatic. The second workflow implements six machine learning methods to develop classification QSAR models. Models can be additionally used to predict external chemicals. Calculation and selection of chemical descriptors, tuning of models' hyperparameters, and methods to handle data unbalancing are also incorporated in the workflow. Both the workflows are implemented in KNIME and represent a useful tool for computational scientists, as well as an intuitive and straightforward introduction to QSAR.
